A secure pocket that fits my iphone 5 is a must for running shorts for me, and these satisfy that. The phone is secure in the zip pocket and doesn't bounce. Good enough. They're comfy and the side pockets are nice if you want to take some gels or light gloves or you can even stuff your Houdini in there.

I love these pair of shorts which I've used on everything to my casual trail runs to marathon long races!Likes:1) Storage: Excellent storage with a large back zipper pocket and two side stretch pockets that can easily hold gels, small soft flasks and gloves. Sturdy waistband means that shorts won't fall down even when carrying all the gear.2) Breathability and wicking: The mesh panels provide nice breathability and the shorts dry super quickly after long runs!3) Lightweight: Length and low weight mean that I barely notice that these shorts are there while running.Dislikes (mostly just knit picks):1) Drawstring: Limited adjustment with drawstring. 2) Expensive: A bit on the pricey side. (But you get what you pay for.)3) Revealing: Inseam length (5") provides great range of motion but the modest among us might find the shorts too short. (Still these are relatively vs. traditional 3" racing split shorts.)
